Can caesarean section leave sequela?
The netizen asked the original author: I am approaching the expected date of delivery now, and I really want to know, if I want to have a caesarean section, will there be any sequelae? For example, will you often have backache, bad weather will hurt your wound and so on?
The expert replied:
Cesarean section, as a mode of delivery, is a supplement to natural delivery and a means for doctors to deal with dystocia. When the pregnant woman has obvious pelvic abnormality or stenosis, the relative pelvis of the fetus is obviously too large, the fetus can't give birth in a short time, or the pregnancy complications or complications of the pregnant woman need to terminate the pregnancy, the doctor will choose surgery.
Compared with natural delivery, surgery has a sequela that can't be ignored, the most obvious one is the obvious surgical scar on the abdominal wall. Some people will think that there is no need to remove stitches in the operation now, and there may be no scars or scars that are not obvious in a short time. In fact, whether scars are produced has a lot to do with physical fitness. Scar is gradually produced in the process of wound healing, protruding from the skin surface, red and hard, and often feels itchy. This is mostly because nerves are over-sensitive with the growth of blood vessels and nerves. With the softening of the scar, the tissue around the incision is getting closer to normal, and this discomfort will gradually disappear.
There are also some problems, such as adhesion between abdominal wall and abdominal cavity, which will increase the difficulty of reoperation, and intestinal obstruction caused by unobstructed operation. The scar on the uterus may rupture in the next pregnancy; The risk of uterine perforation in scar uterus induced abortion is also greater than that in normal uterus.
Because the newborn of cesarean section is not squeezed by the birth canal, a large amount of liquid residue in the lungs will lead to lung humidification and prone to lung infection. Moreover, a large number of existing data show that children with cesarean section are prone to integration disorder and ADHD. So some pregnant women think that surgery is good for their children.
